1. Registered Apprenticeships in most Provinces require that you are a Permanent Resident or Canadian citizen.
2. No LMIA or work permit will be issued for an apprenticeship.
 
Hi All,

I had a similar issue to this. Can anyone direct me to any bulletins or authorities that say that LMIA/LMO won't accept apprenticeships?

1. It doesn't specifically say that, but since there are Canadian Citizens and PRs available for apprenticeships, they won't issue a LMIA.
 
Hi everyone. I came to canada on study visa and now i am on my pgwp. I got my apprenticeship approved in automotive service technician (310s) and currently in 2nd year. My employer is ready to give me an lmia. But am i eligible for lmia on apprenticeship?

I am interested in taking this same course. How did you get accepted as an apprentice? Is it paid? Do you need a work visa and study permit?
